Surrender

Hii! I'm going to start this by saying it's definitely easy to give up, but it feels amazing knowing you don't have to be in control. In my experience surrender isn't a one and done kind of thing. It's something you have to do every day. It feels way easier to do at a church retreat in worship than the busiest week of your life, but the peace it gives you is always worth it. Starting your day by telling God you trust Him is a great way to start. It takes 2 minutes but can give you peace throughout the day. It'll feel like a chore for a bit, but once you do it for a bit, you'll get more used to doing it. Surrendering daily might go against everything you want do, but you need to kill that though and push through. It won't happen overnight, but one day you'll wake up and know it was all worth it.

Recent Obsessions

Hii! We're back. Here's some things that've had my heart recently.

1. Cereal. I've always been a cereal fan, but now since I have some in my house, I love having it.

2. Walking. I love pairing it with a movie, so it feels like less of a chore.

3. Reading. I went through a slump over the summer, but now that it's over I love it again.

   That's all so far. <3

Godly Reset

Everyone gets stuck in ruts, but you can't stay there forever. Here's how to deal.

1. Ask God to help you get up early. It doesn't have to be five in the morning, but enough to have a productive morning. Grab some food or coffee, do something to wake you up, and get into the Word.

2. Do some housework. Whether it's cleaning your closet or doing your laundry, do something you've put off. You'll feel better.

3. Listen to a podcast or Christian music. Whether it's upbeat or slow and chill just center yourself.

   Remember it's not about perfection. Ruts can take a while to get out of, but it's always worth it. You can do it. Just lean on God.
